You just never know what you find when you are surfing the net these days but looky here a handbook developed from the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) for nurses. Sponsored by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation this is a virtual (literally) treasure trove of best practices from the nurses point of view and get this...researched as best practice, not just "we do it that way because that's how we've always done it" reasons.
The whole book can be accessed.....online-for nothing...and you can order your own 3 volume printed copy or a researchable CD if you so desire but why when this will be updated periodically long before the printed stuff will be available.

What a treat! Take a gander around and see what we can improve on to keep our patients safe and well cared for.
We all have a hand in this so read on McDuff !! :)
